Good episode, and the dialogue seemed quite a bit sharper. Glad to see Bobbie get some spotlight, although I wish there was a little more to the Zach/Ellen feud subplot... that could have been much funnier than it was.

Poor Michael, reduced to just one scene this week.

I actually thought Ellen did a halfway decent job. Surprising. As always, Alex stole the show, with her girlish glee over Dean Cain.

Joey I think hit all cylinders this week. Ellen was great and I agree about Michael. He has been reduced to almost nothing.

Awesome episode! 2nd best of the season IMO... let's just hope the ratings improved. Ellen was great, and so was this episode. Long Live Joey!

Some very good stuff, though some of it fell a little flat. I don't think the plots were woven tight enough for me. Stuff seemed to just jump disjointedly.

That being said, there was a lot to praise including better dialogue and an awesome guest appearance by Ellen. Just the way she kept the smile on her face the whole time was awesome. And Joey tripping on his way out was the kind of random throwaway moment the show needs once in a while -- something that Friends did well.

I hate the lack of Michael, but what can you do?

I liked it.. It was okay. 2 things that bothered me. That lady I forgot her name who was blackmailing him. They were sitting at the table and he tells her she was the first true love? No way! Joey never been inlove with anyone until Rachel! So Joey MUST be lying. He must have been in lust with her in high school! That's the only thing that makes sense!

2nd thing is okay the tape was 20 yrs old. Since Joey was 35 last year he is 36 this year so when they had sex on the tape he was 16. He purposes to her and the girl's mother was happy that her 16 year old daughter was getting married? COME ON! Joey didn't look like a teenager in the tape rofl

Other than that pretty funny. Bobby turning 40 and kept lying about her having a birthday dinner with friends. ROFL. Love Ellen! Glad to see her!
